Shares of Taj Gvk Hotels & Resorts Ltd., Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care Ltd., Jindal Drilling & Industries Ltd., Suprajit Engineering Ltd., Vadilal Enterprises Ltd., and more will be on interest on Monday as the day marks the last session for retail investors to buy shares to qualify for receiving the dividend before the stock goes ex/record-date.
The record date determines the eligible shareholders who will receive the dividend payment. The ex-dividend date, which mostly coincides with the record date, marks when the share price adjusts to reflect the upcoming payout. The ex date for the following list is September 1, 2026. Under India's T+1 settlement cycle, the ex-date and record date fall on the same day.

T+1 Settlement Cycle
Given India's T+1 settlement cycle, shares purchased on the record date (September 1 in this case) will not be eligible for the dividend payment. Therefore, investors who own shares by August 31 will be the beneficiaries.
Dividends are a way for companies to reward shareholders. It is the portion of profits that a company distributes to its shareholders and is essentially a return on the investment shareholders make in the company's equity. Such payments are made through final, interim, and special dividends.
Dividends are taxable in the hands of the shareholders, and companies are no longer required to pay the Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT). The TDS on dividend income for resident individuals is 10% if the dividend amount exceeds Rs 5,000 in a financial year.
